Relocating is always difficult. Adjusting to a new job, new co-workers and new surroundings can be hard enough on your new executives without added complications on the home front. Spouses and partners face adjustments of their own. Getting comfortable in a new city, making friends and establishing ties within a new community can be daunting.

The Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce recognizes your new executives and their spouses and partners need to begin making connections and establishing a network with the community quickly to make them successful and effective.

Attending Focus Las Vegas is a great way to get both executives and their significant others invested and engaged with the local community.

Focus Las Vegas provides personal, intimate group sessions that allow participants to interact one-on-one with city and business leaders. Presenters are experts and dignitaries from all facets of the business community. They offer an insider’s view and behind-the-scenes details to the unique workings of one of the most fascinating cities in the world. Don't miss our next Focus session in October. Registration opens soon.

"More than ever, Nevada needs informed, engaged and compassionate business professionals. The Focus program provides context for critical thinking about creating the place we want to live, do business and raise our families. On top of that, the Focus program is an excellent value as a professional development experience, you could spend a lot more for a lot less. You cannot put a price tag on the value of small group presentations from industry leaders when it comes to inspiring your employees to strive for success: personally and for your company." Florence Rogers, President/GM of Nevada Public Radio
